At the most it could relieve the symptoms, but not cure. I'm sure the celiac disease will still be damaging the intestines.

Fascinating. I'm sure they don't mean "cure" but rather "treatment" for symptoms. It seems to aid in digestion, especially of fats, which celiacs do have trouble with. I might just try sprinkling some on my cereal tomorrow :)

I LOVE cardamom and since I stopped eating Indian food and spiced breads, haven't figured out what to put it in....

You can still use it in lassis - also I made coconut jasmine rice recently - jasmine rice with coconut milk and turmeric, and I put cardamon in it, too. It was great!

It's not that I thougth it was actually a "cure"....it's more that I saw it listed as an actual * cure *. Once I saw that, I typed it in and googled it and it came up countless times as a CURE. :o Shocking. I'd never seen that before and was surprised it could be stated so matter of factly that it is a "cure".

I didn't figure that you actually believed it's a cure. It is amazing they could just baldly say that.

Yes, I figured you were experienced enough to know it wasn't a "cure" ;-)

And Stephanie, oh it makes me so sad, but coconut milk seems to be too rich for me to digest right now :( It's sounds soooooo yummy.

how about coconut extract? You could get the taste, but not the consistancy.

Some time ago, before I knew I had a problem with gluten, I took a digestive tonic that had cardamom in it and it seemed really helpful--but it was in a grain alcohol extract. I wouldn't dare take it now, but cardamom sprinkled on food sounds good--I'd be careful of sprinkling it on cereal though. Wonder what kind of cereal those kids are eating?

Speaking of the chinese--it is the chinese who used the cardamom for celiac--I've read that traditional chinese doctors take a very different approach to gluten intolerance than we do--and they often use wheat and/or barley as a cure for those who have digestive problems, so beware of chinese herbal remedies uless you know all the ingredients firsthand.

The acupuncturist I see told me to drink fennel seed tea to help with digestion. It really does seem to help.

I love cardamom (as did my mom, she used it in alot of baking). I use it as I would cinnamon or ginger (ie sweet spices) I love it in custards and rice pudding. I drink ginger tea, I wonder what a sprinkle of ground cardamom would add. mmmmm think I'll have to try it.

I was glutened last week, and thought I'd try if cardamom really helps. So I've been adding some to my tea ever since. It does make for a delicious tea, mmm. :P

I think it actually calmed my tummy a little bit. I had less nausea and cramps than usual. I'm going to try it again the inevitable next time...

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      This article does not address migraines at all. Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines...

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems. Everything in moderation. Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress...

With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
